Happy Friday, friends! As much as I love wearing bright and vibrant colors, there's something refreshing about crisp whites and neutrals for summer. Here's a collection of classic neutral pieces that'd be staples in any girl's closet for years to come.

I wore this blue and white tile print dress on Memorial Day, when I spent the afternoon at The Art Institute of Chicago followed by dinner in River North with my boyfriend's family. (Whether you're visiting Chicago, or you've lived in the city for years, visiting The Art Institute is a must!). It's beginning to truly feel like summer here, and I'm excited to live in sundresses and sandals again. This dress is under $50 at Nordstrom, along with lots of cute affordable summer dresses I rounded-up below. Hope you're having a great week!

Let's talk: humidity and hair. There's nothing more I love than when summer rolls in, but I could do without the humidity. My hair is naturally pretty wavy, and with any ounce of humidity in the air, it tends to transform into a big frizzy mess. (Any one else here with me?). The last thing I want to be doing on a warm day is use more hot styling tools, or apply more and more product to keep my hair in check. I recently tried a sample of Living Proof Prime Style Extender that was included in a previous Sephora order of mine and was extremely impressed. (I wish I had tried it sooner!). The product "primes" hair before blow-drying, which protects and extends the life of your style — even through a humid day. I honestly tell a huge difference in my hair when I use the primer, and can count on my style lasting all day into the following. It's truly the secret behind any (and all) of my good hair days. I should mention: This is not a sponsored post, just one to share how much I like and recommend this product! :)

Can you believe Memorial Day weekend is almost here?! The holiday is always one of my favorites, as it marks the unofficial start to summer and celebrates those who have served our country. Do you have any fun plans for the weekend? I'm looking forward to a Chicago baseball game tomorrow, going for long walks along the lake, enjoying dinners al fresco, indulging in ice cream from a neighborhood spot, and sailing (fingers crossed for good weather!). And of course, I'll be wearing lots of red, white, and blue. J.Crew is now offering 25% off, with the code SUMMERLOVE. I have my eye on this white cover-up, these adorable shorts, an oversized straw hat, this pair lightweight pajamas, and an amazing navy and white stripe tunic. Also, the Nordstrom Half-Yearly Sale begins today — with savings up to 40%, it's not to be missed!

The star of today's post is this pretty coral and white diamond scarf. (I absolutely love its color!) My collection of scarves is something I've brought to the forefront of my closet recently. A lightweight scarf is a summer staple, whether it's draped across your shoulders, worn around your neck, or even tied as a headband or on a leather tote. I rounded up a handful of summery scarves (all under $100), which you can browse below. Hope you have a great week ahead and thanks for stopping by!
